Olympic Stadium roof climb

We followed up the factory tour with a climb over Frei Otto’s tensile roof that spans Munich’s 1972 Olympic Stadium. The two-hour climb over the transparent canopy of acrylic glass panels provided some spectacular views over Munich and out to the Alps.

Last stop of the day was the BMW factory in Regensburg, where it was hard not to be impressed by the scale and efficiency of this 98% robot operated plant.
